Hi Guys,

My 2015 Ford Fusion SE Brake Pedal is Stiff and vehicle locks in gear when you are backing up. My Traction light is on as well as the brake warning light. I am leaning toward it being the ABS control module but i wanted to get a second opinion on it. It has 70k miles on it so it isnt under warranty unfortunately

There is a place in Buford, Georgia that rebuilds your ABS module for around $100, plus shipping and gives you a life time warranty on it. I have used him twice with 100% success.  Once on a 2002 Corvette, once on a 2003 BMW.   The ABS module on most cars is a 10 minute removal and re-install.  It will cost a lot more to buy a new ABS module and have the same removal and install done by a mechanic or a dealer.   The place is:  MyAirbags.com.

 

But I would get a free diagnostic at your dealer service center first, it may be something else, like your parking brake locked up or something trivial.  If you ever drove your car accidently with the parking brake on, that can wear it out quickly.

I am not clear on what you mean by "locks in gear when you are backing up".

When you mention "brake warning light" do you mean the parking brake warning light?
